    "Israel Battered by Wave of Rockets From Lebanon: Lebanese militants fired barrages of rockets into northern Israel early Thursday[^]" It the end the waves of rockets was made of 3 rockets - And no one knows if they were fired by Lebanese militants. What a fair and balanced way to present news.

    Its only as "fair and balanced" as the rest of the news, its just they lean the opposite way to the majority of news outlets. Its usually "LOOK, LOOK AT ALL THE DEAD PALISTINIAN BABIES. In other related news a couple of missiles flew into some town in Israel"

      So what number, exactly, constitutes a wave?

      They were fired from within Lebanon and the people that fired them were probably not nuns and may have been pretty militant about the whole thing, hence Labanses Militants.

        For sure more than one. So 3 don't make waves

        You realize the stupidity of this argument don't you? Unless you don't know that being in a country does not make a citizen of this country? For instance, when you go in Belgium, you don't become belgian.

            I certainly realize how stupid and lacking in a sense of humour you are. Besides, given that most of the people that live in that part of that country are Lebanese it's a fairly safe bet they were, in fact, native. Again, even if they weren't the story doesn't care about such minor points of fact.

                    Do you know that since 1948 there's a palestinian diaspora? For instance, it represents 10% of the people leaving in lebanon.

The NYT - my leftist brochure. Calling an illegal alien an “undocumented immigrant” is like calling a drug dealer an “unlicensed pharmacist”. God doesn't believe in atheists, therefore they don't exist.

                                  "Israel Battered by Wave of Rockets From Lebanon: Lebanese militants fired barrages of rockets into northern Israel early Thursday[^]" It the end the waves of rockets was made of 3 rockets - And no one knows if they were fired by Lebanese militants. What a fair and balanced way to present news.

                                  Yeah, I mean there's always the possibility that they were fired by UN Observers. Or maybe renegade French Militants visiting Lebanon...
